A HIKE AT DARBY WELLS

We hiked out from our boondocking site, just following the BLM road for a bit, and discovered a small desert cemetery, still active.

At the gate of Darby Wells Cemetery

From just behind the hilltop altar

Same altar, different direction

An interesting grave on the outskirts of the cemetery

 And then I sort of got obsessed with mistletoe growing on Palo Verde trees.

A very pretty parasite

with very red berries

This specimen had lighter foliage and lighter-colored berries

Still pretty, for a parasite, anyway!

A huge overtaking of the host tree
